I like the message here:

Imagine that you had won the following *PRIZE*
in a contest: Each morning your bank would deposit $86,400 in your private
account for your use. However, this prize has 5 rules:

1. Everything that you didn't spend during
each day would be taken away from you.

2. You may not simply transfer money into
some other account.

3. You may only spend it.

4. Each morning upon awakening, the bank
opens your account with another $86,400 for that day.

5.The
bank can end the game without warning; at any time it can say,“Game
Over!". It can close the account and you will not receive a new one.

What would you personally
do?

You would buy anything and everything you
wanted right? Not only for yourself, but for all the people you love and care
for. Even for people you don't know, because you couldn't possibly spend it all
on yourself, right?

You would try to spend every penny, and use
it all, because you knew it would be replenished in the morning, right?ACTUALLY, This GAME is
REAL ..

Shocked ??? YES!

Each of us is already a winner of this *PRIZE*.
We just can't seem to see it.

The PRIZE is *TIME*

1. Each morning we awaken to receive 86,400
seconds as a gift of life.

2. And when we go to sleep at night, any
remaining time is NOT credited to us.

3. What we haven't used up that day is
forever lost.

4. Yesterday is forever gone.

5. Each morning the account is refilled,
but the bank can dissolve your account at any time WITHOUT WARNING...

SO, what will YOU do with your 86,400
seconds?

Those seconds are worth so much more than
the same amount in dollars. Think about it and remember to enjoy every second
of your life, because time races by so much quicker than you think.

So take care of yourself, be happy, love
deeply and enjoy life!Here's wishing you a wonderful and
beautiful day. Start “spending" .......
